Pitt TV crew fired

A TV crew has been fired after trespassing on Brad Pitt's home in the Hollywood Hills, according to reports.

It has been claimed a camera operator and a producer for E! entertainment news unchained a gate at the back of the property last Thursday (19.10.06) before entering and filming the house. They ran off after being challenged by workmen.

A statement from the US TV channel confirmed the pair's employment has been "terminated", adding: "E! Networks did not instruct or authorize anyone working on its program to improperly intrude onto private property, and the individuals involved have been terminated."
